Maine Department of Public Safety spokesman Steve McCausland said MDEA agents found drugs, a handgun and cash on Wayman Sparrow and in his rented motel rooms after his arrest Saturday. Sparrow, a Bronx, N.Y., resident is being held at Cumberland County Jail on $100,000 bond.

Sparrow was allegedly carrying a loaded handgun, "small amount of cocaine," scales and items for packaging and distributing drugs when arrested, McCausland said. The weekly log from the Cumberland County Jail in Portland indicated Sparrow, of Schley Avenue in the Bronx, was arrested on Interstate 295 around 6:30 p.m.

McCausland said Sparrow rented motel rooms in Portland and South Portland. After his arrest, searches of those rooms turned up 2.5 ounces of heroin and $4,600 cash.
